Jan. 17th, 2009 08:43 amSo! I spent five hours puking last night.
Don't freak out, I'm okay -- okay, I'm sore as hell, but I'm still hydrated and the puking and nausea have both stopped. This isn't the first time I've done this, and in fact is not even my record for sporadic puking over a measured period; the reason I still can't eat tortilla soup is that the last time I did I puked for eight hours straight, and couldn't move the next day. We crossed Chuy's Mexican off our "okay to eat at" list after that.
Anyway, I'm drinking water spiked with a vinegar/sugar/salt mixture, which works like pedialyte or Gatorade only it actually kinda tastes nice. Whoever gave me that recipe, btw, thank you. And thank you, Ancient Romans, for inventing it! You also invented the arch, I'm pretty fond of that too.
Otherwise -- well, obviously my throat is sore, and my nose and ears are both congested, but I took my temperature and I'm not running a fever. I've taken some naproxen for the pain, and I'm going to be sleeping when I'm not watching videos today.
